ISF001

Sorry guys, but some posted the pedal procedure and I can't locate it via the search engine.

Can someone give me a pointer?

Thx!

Start car
1 press parking break down.
2 depress and release the normal break twice
3 depress and release parking brake twice should end up with it pushed in.
4 depress and release the normal break twice and bam your done.

Hope that helps.

pedal dancing! turns traction control off

AussieISF

Isn't it a lot easier to just press and hold down the traction control button?

I didn't go back and search to verify that those are the right instructions but...

The pedal dance for the ISF is to turn off the ELSD, not the traction control. It turns the ISF into a true one wheel wonder.

can't you just hold the traction button down for a few seconds? That turns everything off except abs lolz

2006 ISx50 and some other lexus models don't have the traction control button, but i'm not sure for the IS-F though,

Here you go:

1. Start car, keep holding the brake pedal down.
2. Tap on the parking brake 2 times, continue to depress it on the second tap (the brake icon on the dash should flash each time, you don't actually have to engage the brake).
3. Pump the brake pedal 2 times, continue to depress it on the second pump.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until you see the traction control light turn on.

So basically brake pump, brake pump and hold, parking brake tap, parking brake tap and hold, and so on.

The pedal dance turns off the "nannies" on the car until you shut it off. Holding down the traction control button will only disable the traction control but you will retain the eLSD. I believe it was posted somewhere here not too long ago.

So does this only apply to pre-2010 ISFs without the mechanical LSD?

the e-LSD are only for the pre 2010. you can't turn off a mechanical LSD, lol

Defratos

and why would someone want to turn of the e-LSD?

Does the e-LSD hold you back in anyway?

zapa

all i know is thats how I do it and it turns off traction control every time.

Others can chime in, but I can't think of any performance related reason to do the pedal dance. You can just hold down the button to turn off both traction and stability control. Keeping the ELSD engaged is a good thing IMO.
